Tyre sisze doesn't matter. It is the wheel size - you need 26" fork. What fork do you currently have?
Also is the headset/steerer a straight or tapered one - ie. is it same width top & bottom or is it wider at bottom?
That will help determine what you need and what you can get. Also budget - a decent fork is not cheap. The difference between a 100mm and 120mm is simply the length of travel - the longer one gives you 20mm more of travel of the fork.
There isn't an awful lot of choice in 26" suspension forks nowadays as the industry standard has moved to 27.5". There is the Rockshox 30 TK.
